Package: micro-inetd
Version: 20050629-1
Severity: important

I tried testing micro_inetd with something simple:

   [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/michael# micro_inetd 4242 cat
   socket: Address family not supported by protocol

Slightly disappointing for such a simple program. :P

strace told a more complete story:

I think it would be better that in the absence of IPv6 it should fall back
to IPv4. Unless IPv6-only is actually a -feature-, in which case I guess
this is really just a documentation bug. :P
